Best gelato I’ve ever had! Honey lavender and earl grey were both winners! So many great, unusual flavors though, I can’t wait to go back!

Some of my favorite ice cream. They have so many flavors I just want to keep going back to try more. So far my favorites are the Thai Tea, cream cheese, and lastly Ricotta which I tried about 18 years ago at another location which I haven’t seen yet at this one but the flavors change everyday so I’m bound to come across it eventually🥰

I am never disappointed when I come! While I wish they always had Dark Chocolate Sorbet, every other flavor I have ever tried is spectacular. My go-to in Montclair!!!!

I tried basil gelato and it was absolutely delicious

The female server on Sunday night made me and my friends feel unwelcome when we entered the gelato store. I was very disappointed and it ruined my appetite.

Delicious, and I love that they experiment with new and unique flavors. Love their dark chocolate, espresso, stracciatella, fior di latte, amongst others! The only thing is service can be a bit lackluster, but they're definitely high school and college kids looking for a gig so I give it a pass!

Ok, first off, this place would be worth the 1.5-2 hour drive, for me, from Philly. The flavor from the gelato or sorbet is never overwhelming and you want to keep going back for another taste. Yes, it is expensive, but the quality is there. The mascarpone is on another level, compared to mascarpone I've had elsewhere. Hazelnut is incredible, as is the espresso. Can't wait to go back and try other flavors.

The gelato was delicious. I really love that They have a wide selection and variety of flavors from your classics to not your average I went with what I know and ordered rum raisin and salted caramel. I love that it was not too sweet perfect texture and flavor. The service was very indifferent. We were not greeted, which is a big thing for me especially when is empty. We stood in front of the case for a couple minutes and it wasn’t until we asked for help that we were acknowledged. It was just in different. I would still go back and have gelato anytime..

They recently raised their price $11 for a medium cone even by Montclair standards it's absurd and the portions aren't even gigantic

Ice cream is great with lots of amazing flavors. But they used to have a Brioche Con Gelato, which I’m sad was discontinued when I went yesterday after months of craving that dessert. Definitely should be an always option! Because I drive one hour for it and was sad to see it not there. Bring it back cus I want it with all your ice cream flavors and let me know!!

The gelato and cookies were delicious! Unfortunately one of the employees gave us the wrong cookie and since we didn’t notice until we arrived home, there was no chance to go back and get the right cookie. Very disappointing but otherwise the food quality is superb!
